Morty King by Morty King, Mark Andres, and Steven Erra

This portrait photograph is part of a collaborative project called Shooting Blind, a project undertaken by a group of visually-impaired photographs. While a photographer usually has sharper vision than most of us, these photographers have only partial vision, or no vision at all.
This image of Morty King uses time-lag chronophotography exposures and flashlights to paint the composition that the photographer was looking for. It expresses the emotion that comes with being visually impaired; the frustration, awkwardness and anxiety that . The flashlight has been used as a metaphor for a blind-mans walking cane, feeling and exposing specific details and emotions of the person in the image.
